APPARATUSES AND METHODS FOR CONTROLLER SIGNALING OF REFRESH OPERATIONS

Abstract: apparatuses and methods for controller signaling of refresh operations. a memory may receive a first or a second type of refresh command. responsive to the first type of refresh command a first type of refresh operation (e.g., a sequential refresh operation) may be performed. responsive to the second type of refresh operation a second type of refresh operation (e.g., a targeted refresh operation) may be performed. this may allow the controller to have greater control over the timing of different types of refresh operation in the memory
